Manila Slum Project Extends Support to Young Moms
In Manila's busy streets, many children miss out on schooling. But there's hope as we work to change their story.
Deanna was one of the working mothers who was hit hard by the COVID pandemic. She was unable to continue with her former work so she needed a new source of income. Raising her adopted son on her own, it is important that her transition would succeed.
With her savings, she started selling afternoon snacks in front of her house. Her choice of business proved to be right as she continued to sell all of her snacks each day.
With the additional help from our Microfinance team, she increased the variety of food that she offers. Every morning, she would buy fresh supply of bread, patties, and various Filipino snacks to cook. Her store is open until 10 in the evening.
We continue to support mothers like Deanna who continue to persevere to provide education for their children through our microfinance programs.
